I don't think they can be *completely* intuitive. I just received a Visor for my birthday and I probably shouldn't admit this, but I spent a minute trying to write on the screen instead of the writing area (maybe DH's Jornada works that way, and that's why I expected it?)

How much demand is there currently for techwriters to write for hand-held
devices (e.g., Palm and Ebook)? If these are so intuitive, doesn't that
negate the need for a techwriter to do the documentation or even the
content?
